BFD multiplier range is 3 to 10. Default BFD multiplier
is 3.

Step 6
What to Do Next
Configure BFD bring up timeout interval.
Once LSP is signaled and BFD session is created, TE allows given time for the BFD session to come up. If
BFD session fails to come up within timeout, the LSP is torn down. Hence it is required to configure BFD
bring up timeout
Configuring BFD Bring up Timeout
Perform these steps to configure BFD bring up timeout interval. The default bring up timeout interval is 60
seconds.
Before You Begin
BFD must be enabled under MPLS TE tunnel interface.

DETAILED STEPS
PurposeCommand or Action
configure
Step 1
Configures MPLS Traffic Engineering (MPLS TE) tunnel
interface and enters into MPLS TE tunnel interface
configuration mode.
interface tunnel-te interface-number
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config)#interface
tunnel-te 65535
Step 2
Enables the time interval (in seconds) to wait for the BFD
session to come up.
bfd bringup-timeout seconds
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-if)#bfd
bringup-timeout 2400
Step 3
Bring up timeout range is 6 to 3600 seconds. Default bring
up timeout interval is 60 seconds.
